Abrasions

Any superficial damage or wound on the skin that goes no deeper than the epidermis, is medically known as Abrasions. There is no or very little bleeding in Abrasions, it but may seep with a blood-like fluid. Deeper abrasions may lead to scarring while mild ones such as scrapes are less likely to cause scarring. They are caused when the skin comes in contact with rough surfaces, and should be cleaned thoroughly and bandaged to avoid infection.
